Right now it is 8:01 p.m. in London and 7:01 a.m. tomorrow in Melbourne....Andy plays at 11:00 a.m. so midnight would be correct.

He will play around 6 p.m. where I live in the US Central time, which is a bummer as I will not be home, but will be able to watch the live update.

So Andy, you are unburdened by the words "never won a slam" so you can go into this match with less pressure than you've had in all the other slams. Focus, focus, and go into this match taking charge right from the beginning. Let your racquet do the talking and may the force be with you!!

I've made up my mind. 1 set and then I'll see how I feel. I might stay awake, might not.

I don't think people should be quite so judgemental about those who can't stay up. Some of us need a certain number of hours sleep. Some of us have early starts. Some of us are not quite as fit as we'd like to be and are unable to stay awake for what, in theory, could be most of the night, as much as we would love to.

Having said that I still think Andy will do it in three. After the first set tonight I'll see how things look. If Andy looks like wrapping it up quickly I'll stay awake

Not for this Canadian resident, picked the wrong time to holiday in France this year.And what is worse is that we'll be on a flight to Toronto the day of the final!!Will try to get up around 3ish to see how he's getting on.Come on champ!!!

Read a bit in the papers today quoting Robin Hasse saying that he felt he could win as he has a game that troubles Andy. So come on Mr Murray I need you to get this done in a hurry, am staying up with the hope that I can be in my bed by 2ish and get some sleep before work at 8.30am. Good luck Andy, you can do this.
